I think it is deigned to work with SE63:

Menu: Translation -> ABAP objects -> Short Texts

Then a tree structure appears.

There you select:

S5 Other Interface Texts -> VARI Report Variants

But when I reviewed the coding I saw that it is searched for variants beginning with CUS& or SAP& in table VARID.

Unfortunately this variants don't seem to be stored there.

So it doesn't work at all.

I think you should make an OSS Call.

The only way to translate quickly is to logon in the foreing language and to change the name of the variant within this logon.

This should work.

Kind regards

Standard variants can actually be translated with SE63.

How does it work?

Standard variants are saved in table VARID but in client 000. (Something I forgot)

In SE63 you can only translate this standard variants.

Enter something with '*' in the object name. Then press F4. In the next input field you enter the package in which the programm of your variant is included.

Then all standard variants are listes which fit to entered package.

I don't see much sense in this procedure but it works nevertheless.

Kind regards

Herbert
